Rounds
Avg Check Size

SAV focuses on early exits and real returns, having already logged multiple M&A exits, and relies on corporate LPs in Japan, Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan who act as active partners—opening enterprise pilots and distribution deals—rather than just providing passive capital. The fund backs immigrant and internationally minded founders building acquirable, AI-native enterprise software, invests from pre-seed through later-stage SPVs, and stays hands-on on product given its founder's background in ML/AI research.
